I am new to this community. I just got myself the freerunner a couple of days back. I am a fairly experienced user of Linux/Debian/Kubuntu on the desktop and this is my first experience with something like the freerunner.
Anyway i am happy with the hardware and i have been through the wiki and am still trying to make my way through the amount of information available in there. The first thing i did after the free runner landed was i reflashed the firmware to the 2008.8. I have it boothing but i have not go tit to do anything useful. Wifi does not connect and the GPS does not work. There exists no filemanager/ media player by default and so essentially i still have nothing usable. I would appreciate anyone guiding me or pointing me to a location where i can get the needed information. What i need to being is 1) Get the wifi to connect. It currently invariably always says something like "Error: Unable to connect to the network" 2) Get my GPS working. TangoGPS says no GPS found and "locations" says unable to get a fix. 3) How do i exchange data between my PC and the FR so that i could push my MP3's and documents etc. 4) A good music player, web browser and PDF reader. Thanks to everyone who made this product what it is. Over the next couple of months i wish to have my Qt apps i've written for the desktop ported to this platform. In that regard i have not read anywhere about it but i hope the USB port operates in host mode and i would need it to interface with certain USB (1.1) hardware. -- Cheers!
